Title: PC problem
Post by: raw on Thursday, October 15, 2015, 01:23:59 AM
Hallo,

Can someone tell me why my computer starts on its own?
In the evening i put it to stand-by mode and usually around 2-4 am during the night it starts the pc for some reason.

what more details i should tell?

Why i dont shut down the pc for good?

Because there's the other problem. I have external HDD with the usb capel. if i have it connected and reboot my pc the system wont start because its trying to start the system using the external HDD...i think it can be easily changed from the BIOS but i have no clue how.

Here's the booting order now from the BIOS:

1.windows boot manager
2.CD/DVD
3.Removable device
4.LAN

I had this same problem with my old pc and now i got new pc and this same problem appeared.

Help meh!

I don't know if it's usual, but I have seen on my old pc that cursor moves automatically. It's because of my crappy optic mouse that decides to move a little bit once in awhile by itself. Therefore first idea that came in my mind is simply mouse that awakes your computer :) Most likely your problem is something else and shutting down your mouse for nights won't work but maybe it's worth of trying.

Check the system defragmentation timeline.

Set your first HD as master and the second (on USB) as a slave - if this won't help, try to disable primary partition on it.
